  • HP Pavilion dv7-6004ea: new SSD not recognized in the BIOS

    Hi I have a want dv7 and is currently using a 700 GB drive HARD However im upgrading to an SSD

    I bought a Sandisc SSD PLUS 120 GB, I cloned the HDD to the SSD, I see partitions

    in windows Explorer when im running HDD, but when I try to boot from SSD I get an error

    error code (3F2) I ran diagnosis but no result without error of ideas? Thank you

    If you use the Apricorn software and a usb cable to SATA it should work.

    I did it several times without problem, except when I got an SSD that was a problem.

    Replace the original hard drive in the notebook.

    Download the latest version of the firmware from the manufacturer to the SSD and install it.

    Once you have done this, try cloning of the OS for the SSD, reinstall it in Notepad and start on the SSD.

  • Pavilion DV7-3165DX, Atheros AR9285 WiFi adapter, communication and incompatibility issues

    After much research, I decided to buy a Pavilion DV7-3065DX. Then, I walked to my local Best Buy to say the 3065DX had been abandoned and was no longer available for purchase. However, the 3165DX, his successor had arrived and was very similar to the previous generation. After a brief discussion to justify the increase of prices with myself, I gave and was sold.

    Within hours, I was in College, trying to connect to the WiFi network without success. After several hours becoming more and more frustrated, I decided to call it closes unexpectedly. Rushing home after class, I plugged the new Linksys WRT160N, I had also bought wireless router and configured on my desk. Once completed, I tried to connect using the new Pavilion. To my surprise, it worked! (And no problem whatsoever no less). So, apparently, the wireless adapter works, but does so only on some networks.

    A week later, I tried to connect to a number of public and private WiFi networks of different types with limited success. Most importantly, I am able to connect to my home network, but not to the public networks in my college or city libraries. At one point, the Office for my college indicated that my WiFi adapter is one of a handful of cards on the list of incompatible devices to their network. As it was to buy the laptop in the first place, I am extremely frustrated.

    I turned to the support pages of HP for a solution. I considered a update driver despite the use of the HP Wizard to keep abreast on all software downloads and updates. To my dismay, product for the Pavilion DV7-3165DX page lists of Broadcom WiFi adapter, which does not correspond to my hardware (Atheros AR9285). What's worse, is that the manufacturer's website offers no driver downloads to customers that its site is adapted directly to product manufacturers.

    At this point, I'm increased and not sure what to do. I am already attached to this laptop. Apart from the war with his fingerprints on its black and shiny chrome surfaces shiny, the problem with the Atheros WiFi card is the only problem that I had. I hate having to go through the ordeal to return, and I do not think that this problem requires the sending of the product to HP for repair. Furthermore, I believe that if it came down to one of those, I simply return the product and find my way to another product by other manufacturers in total.

    This certainly isn't the experience I had hoped with my first purchase of HP.

    Any suggestions?

    I have the same question... However with me the solution wasn't in the pilot. I spent 3 hours on the phone with technical support, try to understand.

    What it comes down to say that Atheros AR 9285 is a shi * ty wireless card. It supports 802.11n Protocol, but only 2.4 GHz (the same as the b/g frequencies). My Cysco wireless router was broadcasting 5 GHz Wireless-N and AR 9285 was not able to detect it. Once I changed the router settings to allow 2.4 GHz Wireless-N Networking, the Atheros card was able to connect under the Protocol N. However, the maximum speeds of 2.4 GHz card are slower than 5 GHz card.

    I wish they would give an option to choose what wireless card to install in my laptop. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I'm always done what they me screwed on.

  • Pavilion dv7-1110eo: HP Pavilion dv7-1110eo error after update BIOS startup

    I've updated the BIOS (it is now Hewlett-Packard F.49) with a download from the HP Web site. I wish I had not done that because it's my portable patient. When start it freezes and the only thing that I see is black screen with HP logo. No button works.

    Later I discovered that BIOS itself is not the problem (I tried to get back the old version for a long time without success), it is the connected USB devices or USB ports, don't know. My laptop starts normally and works perfectly if I remove all plug-ins USB until I press the power button. After the black screen is passed I can plug the USB and they work too. I wonder if any of you ever faced this kind of problem...! If you have and you know how to solve this problem, please help. (Finnish HP customer service couldn't help me).

  • Upgrade the processor with AMD 10 - 4600M of HP Pavilion dv7-6101er (lz661ea) FS1 and FS1r2 taken

    Hello friends. I own HP Pavilion dv7-6101er (lz661ea) and I want to upgrade processor. Current processor is A6-3410MX and socket FS1 I want to replace for socket AMD A10-4600 M FS1r2. But I'm not shure will be new processor works in my notebook? I asked this question in support of the ADM, they said that the two CPU is compatible, but need software support in the bios of the specific laptop models. I can't put this question to the HP support because the time of free assistance of my model is over. Please ask - my notebook BIOS will support a new processor?

    n00x wrote:

    All of what you have written - I understand that. But understanding and you - the replacement of the processor is necessary because the lack of performance. For a new book, I have no money. You are an employee of HP and can really help to ask someone of your colleagues who will know exactly to run the new AMD processors in my notebook. All my books have HP I have always helped the company - buy its products, help me and you now. I'm not pleading for much - just a concrete answer - will work or not?

    N° !! That's where you're wrong. I'm not an employee of HP.

    Very few of us here in the forums are employees of HP. Those who are, with few exceptions, are here volunteer their time to help the owners of HP products. It is a peer to peer forum, where the owners of HP products share their time and expertise, helping others who need assistance. We are here to help. We help voluntarily.

    There is no concrete answer on this. Sometimes an upgrade to a non supported CPU will work, but more often it will fail.  Read my previous posts. The risk of any currency you use in your country to buy the new processor is yours, not me, or HP.

    Here's a solid answer for you... Use a processor that is listed in the Service & maintenance Guide and your chances of success of upgrade will increase considerably.  I can't say that your upgrade success will be guaranteed because there's always the chance you can break something during the assembly/disassembly or not having knowledge of a critical assembly/disassembly procedure and inadvertently destroy your new processor.

    If you want a high-performance CPU and chipset in a laptop computer, then choose when making a purchase of laptop. Computer laptop/notebooks are not actually intended to be upgraded.

  • Problem on HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with Windows 8 Pro x 64 on video card

    Good evening

    I just finished installing Windows 8 x 64 Win7 Pro, I could find all the drivers for my laptop, but I have problems with the video card settings.

    My laptop is a HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with two graphics cards, one managed by the processor, because it seems to do, and the other is normally installed on the PC.

    The cards are read by Windows as:

    Unit 1: Intel HD Graphics 3000
    Unit 2: AMD Radeon HD 6700 m Series (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM v1.20)

    the problem lies in the fact that the device must be a supported per second, or disabled, as it will not be. AMD video card must be set to 1 and the intel 2. If I go to the "Device Manager" to disable the card intel Windows, it works as if he was absent any video card, also installed driver is not correct because the card is an AMD Radeon HD7690M XT, the problem is that even if I uninstall this driver then always comes back. I also tried to download AMD Catalyst in the latest version, but can't find the card. It's as if the windows are imposed only use the unit 1, which, however, I can not disable the BIOS, because there is no voice. I note that Windows 7 had no problem.

    I ask you to help me because I need the video card for my work performance.

    Fixed the link - please try again

    Hello LisaMarieHarvey,

    Looks like you need a battery of RTC. The RTC battery part number is 599516-001 and can be ordered from HP.

    Your best option is to pop just the battery (instructions in the service manual below the link to page 56) and carry it with you in a place like Radio Shack and just buy a new one.

  • HP Pavilion dv7 Bluetooth adapter no longer works

    HP Pavilion dv7.  #ABC product number WQ641UA.  My built-in bluetooth stopped working a few weeks ago. It caused an error from Outlook that seems turned off the bluetooth adapter.  Yesterday, the HP support assistant recommends an upgrade of the Bluetooth software for the wireless Broadcom 43224AG card.  Software will not load because it cannot detect the Bluetooth adapter.  I don't know how to re-enable the bluetooth feature.  It does not appear in either the BIOS or Windows Mobility Center.

    Yes... seems to be a problem with the hardware only. As a result of the manual, you can also try reinstalling the Bluetooth card once.

    You can get the Bluetooth card replaced either by calling technique supports directly or if not under warranty you can order it online at HP parts store. You can buy the piece by calling technical support also.

    HP parts store

    Enter the serial number and the number of the product in the link above and it will show you all the spare parts available for your laptop. The contact number for Bank of parts is also listed in the link. If the part is not available it also will show you all dealers allowed to the Canada.
